Law is a tool, like a firearm. Can be used for bad, and governments are expert at this.
I appreciate that you share details, like "wrecking."
Congress is similarly abusive, supporting the Mueller witch hunt, allowing ICIG Atkinson to operate outside his statutory jurisdiction while telling the public "whistleblower," and by conducting two impeachments on manufactured basis.
Another show trial intended to conceal the fact that it was the incompetent, black Democratic city government of Flint that was responsible, and to further suppress political opposition to the Democrats.
In your own Vaterland!
By your own Soldaten!
Nessel(AG) is a femi-nazi dyke, loyal to party...she'll hang Snyder(no loss), but won't touch Obama, his EPA rep.(Susan Hedman), or all the local dem pols. neck deep in $ludge with a 10 ft. pole...not to mention the Detroit Water Dept...who's corruption in screwing the 'burbs with endless rate hikes actually started the whole process.
"Stop shaking, Price. They'll be no pardon from no governor"
...actually, there probably will be...but not until he and the Republican Party are thoroughly dragged through the mud by Witchmer and her coven.
By then Snyder will not only be just another back-stabbing RINO, he'll be a full-blown toady for the dems.
Same. 🙁
Should be a teachable moment for GOP-E, as the left will not care how far left the GOP-E goes. The left (Narcissists) will ultimately go full guillotine on anyone and everyone they want, but none more than those who apposed the lefts nooral boundaries beliefs.
morality? Do you REALLY expect us to believe that YOU have some “MORAL” position? You support killing babies. I don’t need to know ANYTHING else about your “morality”.
Welp, hope your friend Biden will help you Governor. No Republicans should come to your defense since you abandoned us and our President.
The city of Flint decided to break away from the Detroit water and sewerage system and they started getting their water from the Flint River, which turned out to be a bad idea. Snyder had nothing to do with it. I find it hard to have a lot of sympathy for RINO Rick, but I don’t see how he should be prosecuted for the Flint situation.
Not a fan of White Boy Rick RINO but the whole Flint water issue was the doing of Flint’s Mayor & city council trying to save bucks. Jail them first.
I don’t care.
Flint were not saving bucks on the water crisis, they had no money to pay a utility bill that was years behind to Detroit water authority. Instead of Detroit granting relief, rewriting the contract to deliver water for something flint could afford, say a dollar. they pushed the issue putting their democratic friends and peers in the hands of Gov nobody in that quadrant of Michigan supported. One that owed detriot and flint a bit of payback on an old score.
The state constitution and courts required the executive branch install someone for the city in reviciership. At that point that city CEO is making the choices and the Gov is out of the day to day. The city manager is then making choices wholesale, and as the city is a utility, that makes no effort to collect water bills, any spending on a passthrough expense is a bad idea.
The backup water source always needed a chemical to settle particulate and a chemical to avoid rotting the pipes. These chemicals are used in about 75% of water systems in the US. The major exceptions are the PH ballanced and low mineral/low particulate shallow waters of the great lakes. The folks in detriot put the anti corrosion product in the water to prevent their own pipes from rotting out despite the very low need when pulling from the michigan-huron body of water. See the great lakes are so clear the sun shines all the way to the bottom of all but a few places, the load of contaminates comes from the plumbing at the water intake inwards and not the source with the fishs.
The chemical cost for to prevent the pipes from rotting was on the order of 100/day. The cost to allow the sediment and brown of the water was on the order of 300/day.
Legal bills alone so far are 25 million. Great spending on all sides there folks.
